Printed Leaf – Financial Dispute Between the People of Hebron – Vienna, 1863

Printed leaf, concerning a financial dispute between the people of Hebron. Vienna, 1863.
Polemic proclamation sent by the rabbis of Hebron to "all our Jewish brethren in the Diaspora" – the donors from Western Europe, containing the contentions and accusations of a financial dispute between two parties and emissaries of the Sephardi Kollel, surrounding the collection and distribution of funds sent from Western European towns. At the foot of the proclamation, they request that henceforth, funds intended for Hebron be sent to "Chevrat Kol Yisrael" (the Alliance) in Paris and to its director R. Avraham HaKohen. The signatures of 34 of Hebron's rabbis and activists are printed at the end of the proclamation. (The booklet Shever Poshim, Jerusalem 1862, was printed concerning this dispute, describing at length the details of the affair).
